"...you are with the prophet ﷺ and his companions May Allah be pleased with them”.

Imam Mohammad Ibn Yousuf Alferabri (student of Imam Bukhari) May Allah bestow mercy upon them both said:

“Imam Bukhari dictated to me one day many hadeeths, and when he feared I may be getting bored he said to me: be happy; as indeed the people who love amusement are busy with their amusement, and the people of industry are busy with their industry, and the merchants are busy with thier business but you are with the prophet ﷺ and his companions May Allah be pleased with them”.

"أملى يوماً عليَّ [يعني شيخه البخاري] حديثا كثيرا، فخاف ملالي ، فقال :‏ طب نفسا ، فإن أهل الملاهي في ملاهيهم ، وأهل الصناعة في صناعتهم ، والتجار في تجاراتهم ، وأنت مع النبي ﷺ وأصحابه".

Allaah says:

And (remember) when Allah will say (on the Day of Resurrection): "O 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Did you say unto men: 'Worship me and my mother as two gods besides Allah?' " He will say: "Glory be to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner-self though I do not know what is in Yours, truly, You, only You, are the All-Knower of all that is hidden and unseen.

[Surah Al - Ma'idah 5:116]

[path-to-the-salaf-2]

Allaah says:

“This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion.”

[Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:3]

[path-to-the-salaf-2]

Allaah says: 

Because of that We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind. And indeed, there came to them Our Messengers with clear proofs, evidences, and signs, even then after that many of them continued to exceed the limits (e.g. by doing oppression unjustly and exceeding beyond the limits set by Allah by committing the major sins) in the land!. 

[Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:32]

[path-to-the-salaf-2]

Allaah says:

Lo! You are the ones who love them but they love you not, and you believe in all the Scriptures [i.e. you believe in the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel), while they disbelieve in your Book, the Quran]. And when they meet you, they say, "We believe". But when they are alone, they bite the tips of their fingers at you in rage. Say: "Perish in your rage. Certainly, Allah knows what is in the breasts (all the secrets)."

If a good befalls you, it grieves them, but if some evil overtakes you, they rejoice at it. But if you remain patient and become Al-Muttaqun (the pious), not the least harm will their cunning do to you. Surely, Allah surrounds all that they do.

[Surah Ali ‘Imran 3:119-120]

Al-Bara’ bin ‘Azib (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: Whenever Messenger of Allah ( صلى الله عليه وسلم ) went to bed, he would lie down on his right side and recite: “Allahumma aslamtu nafsi ilaika, wa wajjahtu wajhi ilaika, wa fawwadtu amri ilaika, wa 'alja'tu zahri ilaika, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilaika, la malja'a wa la manja illa ilaika. Amantu bikitabikal-ladhi anzalta, wa nabiyyikal-ladhi arsalta [O Allah! I have submitted myself to You, I have turned my face to You, committed my affairs to You, and depend on You for protection out of desire for You and out of fear of You (expecting Your reward and fearing Your punishment). There is no refuge and no place of safety from You but with You. I believed in the Book You have revealed, and in the Prophet You have sent (i.e., Muhammad ( صلى الله عليه وسلم )).]”

He said: On one occasion I was lying on my belly in the mosque when a man shook me with his foot and he said, “Verily, Allah disapproves of lying down like this.” I looked and it was the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him.

Allaah says:

"And had Allah willed, He could have made you (all) one nation, but He sends astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. But you shall certainly be called to account for what you used to do."

[Surah An-Nahl 16:93]

Narrated `Umar:

I heard the Prophet ( صلى الله عليه وسلم ) saying, "Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians praised the son of Mary, for I am only a Slave. So, call me the Slave of Allah and His Apostle."

[Sahih al-Bukhari 3445]

[path-to-the-salaf-2]

Allaah says: Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The parable of His Light is as (if there were) a niche and within it a lamp, the lamp is in glass, the glass as it were a brilliant star, lit from a blessed tree, an olive, neither of the east (i.e. neither it gets sun-rays only in the morning) nor of the west (i.e. nor it gets sun-rays only in the afternoon, but it is exposed to the sun all day long), whose oil would almost glow forth (of itself), though no fire touched it. Light upon Light! Allah guides to His Light whom He wills. And Allah sets forth parables for mankind, and Allah is All-Knower of everything.

[Surah Nur 24:35]

[path-to-the-salaf-2]

Allaah says: And a tree (olive) that springs forth from Mount Sinai, that grows oil, and (it is a) relish for the eaters.

 Allaah says:

 And it is He Who produces gardens trellised and untrellised, and date-  palms, and crops of different shape and taste (its fruits and its seeds)  and olives, and pomegranates, similar (in kind) and different (in taste).  Eat of their fruit when they ripen, but pay the due thereof (its Zakat,  according to Allah’s Orders 1/10th or 1/20th) on the day of its harvest,  and waste not by extravagance. Verily, He likes not Al-Musrifun (those  who waste by extravagance) 

 [Surah Al-An’am 6:141]

[path-to-the-salaf-2]
